Moyes said: ‘People expect to come here and see us play well but we didn’t. You’re always going to get bad results, that’s part of the job, and it’s how you deal with them and move on.

3. Olympiakos 2-0 United

Tuesday Feb 25 United only register one shot on target and are convincingly beaten by the Greek club on a disastrous night for Moyes.

Moyes said: ‘I take responsibility. It’s my team and I always front up. It’s the worst we’ve played in Europe. I didn’t see that level of performance coming, I just didn’t see it.’

4. United 0-3 Liverpool

Sunday Mar 16 Moyes infuriated United supporters by claiming Liverpool were the favourites to win but was proven right when he suffered a thrashing here, with Steven Gerrard even missing a third penalty.

Moyes said: ‘The teams above us are doing well and it looks as if we’re a long way off from the top four. The crowd gave us phenomenal support and I’m disappointed for them that we couldn’t give them a result.’

5. Everton 2-0 United

Sunday April 20 Moyes suffers an embarrassing return to Goodison Park after a pitiful United display that forces the Glazers to act.

Moyes said: ‘We gave away two terrible goals but prior to that we passed the ball really well, kept the ball, had great control of the game. I thought we played very well in the first half. We came in 2-0 down but had been passing the ball really well.’
